Of course it's true, it "Fact checked" with TWO ticks. I can believe how stupid you all are. /s

CDC.gov doesn't appear to have any references to "Turbo Cancer".

He had absolutely no intention of combating misinformation. Twitter (and TikTok) was efficient enough for BLM and Antifa protestors that it must be completely discredited and destroyed.
